Finished Final Space just now. Thanks again @Hero-of-Time. Great show with a spectacular finale.

If you have a Wii or Wii U right now you could be able to play SNES games, as long as they're available, right?

That's great a idea, actually.

Same here. With the collections (SNES Mini and MegaDrive) the more popular older games are relatively easily available (SNES Mini to a lesser degree, admittedly). I think it's the best choice for now. It's worth a shot to see how it'll go with retro games. If it doesn't gain traction we can always change things up.

When should we start with the first poll? There's still the Chrono Trigger thread. Should we wait some more for people to finish the game there?

Good idea. Wii and games that exclusively use motion controls.

I'd say as a start we limit it to those two. If the idea catches on we can always expand the list later. But we should definitely stick to retro consoles.

I see, but I think with voting it's much easier to decide on one game.

Wat? Isn't that your original idea?

The moment you've been waiting for has arrived. I introduce you to the magnificent N-Europe Video Game Club Only people with good taste in video games are allowed to take part. Yes, YOU are not. You know who you are. Anyway, now that this is out of the way let me give a rundown of what this is about: every month (doesn't have to start at the 1st of each month; maybe every 4 weeks is better Edit: or less, depending on the game/pool of games) we take a vote to choose a game out of a set pool the game with the most vote will be played by anyone who's interested and discussed in a dedicated thread you can tell us about your journey, praise the game, criticize how bad it is, write a poem about your love of the game in question, record a video which depicts you stabbing the cartridge with a knife, tell others that their opinion SUCKS (this is the internet after all), etc Regarding the games pool: one participant selects 3 games one system (SNES, MegaDrive or GB/GBC/GBA for now) easily available games (i.e. no games that would cost a fortune to acquire) once the time to play is over this participant names one who will select the next 3 games out of this pool we each choose one game with the most votes will be the one we play @Happenstance, @S.C.G, @Hero-of-Time, @nekunando, @Sheikah, @Sméagol, @Glen-i, @Goafer, @Jonnas, @Mandalore, @Ike, @RedShell Feel free to tag others I didn't think of in your posts. (yeah, yeah, ok. People with bad taste are allowed, too.) This thread serves as a place for discussion about the "rules", voting and general ideas/suggestions. I'd say that before we start with the first vote (I will provide the first three games, because screw you ) tell us what you think about the idea and the above points. Suggestions are always welcome.

Agree with all of that. Will keep that in mind. I didn't grow up with MegaDrive, though, so I actually have no idea regarding its games. I will need a little help with that.

I'm going to get a thread up and running as soon as I've had launch. This will probably be a thread to collect ideas on how to figure out which games to play and then how to proceed. I reckon once we've decided on a game it's best to create a thread for that and let the discussion commence.

Yeah, that will always be a problem with you. How about you start playing the game in question two days before the month is over. Then we'll all be finished at the same time.

I won't comment on that, let's just agree that we both have better taste in games than @nekunando

Kinda like that idea. But you'll be banned soon, so someone else should take matters in hand themselves

And with that I request you to be banned from this thread, no, from this forum. Anyway, thanks to you all. Just 'acquired' 19 games for my device and will have to choose one to start with later today. Maybe it'll be Chrono Trigger, yet again? Who knows? I know. IT WILL BE.

Alright. Easy: What are, in your opinion, essential SNES games that everyone should play? Recommend me everything, even the obvious ones (e.g. Super Mario World), but most importantly some obscure and hidden gems. I will have some more free time soon and would love to revisit my gaming history and add a little more knowledge about other SNES games.

You could've warned me. Didn't expect the show to be this emotional Just finished Ep 8 and my goodness...my eyes got a little wet there.

Rightly so. But he's hilarious How could I not, he's such a cute little fella. Just watched Episode 3. I love this show, thanks for the recommendation

Kevin getting and "eating" a cookie had me in stitches

Just watched the first episode and it is indeed a little slow. But it's funny and fun Here I go binge watch the remaining episodes

Oooohhh boy. From the Youtube description: Stunning. Can't wait

You need help? We could get you out of there. #bobjoke

I haven't bothered with reading reviews in ages. I know what I like and most of the time I can gauge quite well whether I will like a game or not by watching gameplay trailers.
